ProDrive Drive pickleball paddles are designed to maximize your game's potential by incorporating advanced engineering techniques. Unlike regular pickleball paddles that typically have a single core, the Drive paddles utilize sandwich technology with three layers. The central layer of the paddle is made of Aramid Honeycomb, which can be likened to a piece of cheese in a sandwich. When playing a soft game, you primarily utilize the outer layers of the paddle, which can be compared to the bread. These outer layers provide a softer feel and control.
